{"product_id":"exo-terra-reptile-uvb150-desert-compact-bulb","title":"Exo Terra Reptile UVB150 Desert Compact Bulb","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe desert tier of Exo Terra's compact UVB range. Exo Terra describes the output as similar to sunlight in deserts and rates it as effective up to 50cm (20\"), which is why it is the one recommended for terrariums with a dense screen cover — mesh absorbs a lot of UVB. Same caveat as every fluorescent UVB bulb: it emits UVB and visible light, not heat. A bearded dragon or uromastyx still needs a separate basking lamp over the warm end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo wattages, 13W and 25W, self-ballasted with a screw base.
